They don't make pop stars like they used to, do they? Shame... PS: Mr. Saville OBE, that is some AWESOME and TERRIFYING bling you're sporting! Kudos to you!
A Total Legend.........You don't have to prance around the stage to sell a song......Alvin Stardust had it all.....Stance Pose and Glamour.....Bring Back The 70's.......
My Coo Ca Choo and Jealous Mind sold out so quickly that Red Dress was the first Alvin single that I bought. What a year that was. A fantastic song and video thanx!
This whole show looks fantastic, I wish it could be uploaded in its entirety. It has the Bay City Rollers, ABBA, Stevie Wonder, The Osmonds, Jim Stafford, Wizzard, The Stylistics and of course Alvin!!!!
Es war meine Jugend. Ich habe ihn damals mit meinem Schulfreund, dem Michi selber oft gehört. Leider starb auch er vorzeitig an Krebs mit 54. Michi und Alvin Stardust ruhet in Frieden. Irgendwann sehen wir uns wieder.
Am i so glad, that i been to seen him in March in Skegness. Just one of my heroe's from the 70's. Best decade of music EVER. and thats from and Elvis fan.
Saw Alvin (or Shane Fenton as he was then) in 1971 at the Cumbria Club Millom, he was stood next to me at the bar. He wore brown patchwork leather trousers I remember, I really wanted a pair, but didn't have the nerve to ask him where he got them from...haha. He was blonder then too, but a class act nontheless!
@@lewisner Great question ! Actually it was a different Pete Shelley who had a hit with 'Love me Love my dog ' in the early seventies and wrote other songs for Alvin.
I don't think this was at all a hit on American radio... Did this have a retro sound, and look, when it first came out? I think 1974 was also the year David Essex 'Rock On' came out (which *was* a bit US hit)... it reminds me of that a bit. Similar kind of vibe.
i dont quite beleive his ohhh ohhh. no attitude. and like many 70s pop songs it sounds like hes singing about rape. american british cross overs are facinating. it often works well both ways. shame it didnt this time
There is something wrong with this version of "red dress"; I bought this song on single at the time (1974) and the sound of the original version is far more greater.
